red and green

When I began this quilt....
I thought I might...possibly....use it for Christmas someday.
That day has not arrived.

This is another one of my 2" trouble quilts!!
Thankfully there's lots of green.
So.........
I've decided those seams are just NOT going to match!
From a distance you can't really tell....
Can you??

I'm going to move on with my life....
I'll leave these 2" blocks where they are.
Finish this quilt.
Say goodbye trouble!
and
MOVE ON!!!

  4. Are you serious? I can see nothing but beauty in this top! Of corse the only person that will notice it is you. (if ther eis really something wrong with it) I once made a bag lady top for a friend and it wasn't until she took a picture of it that I noticed 1 block I put in upside down. Every one had a hard time finding it, but I spyed it right away and was upset she told me should would fix it and to relax but she never did! I still think of that top! I have a picture on my blog of it still.

  5. I have looked and looked and no, I can't see it. I see a beautiful quilt and lovely color choices! But you are wise to turn your back and move on if it bothers you.

  6. Oh, definitely finish it - it is lovely! And matching seams are overrated in my book. (of course, I don't have a book, but if I did...)

  8. What's not matching? I can't tell. It's a very fun quilt, just as Christmassy as can be!

  13. We are our hardest critics. A lot of 2" squares just are not going to be "right on". Remember our ancesters - quilts were made from love - not perfection. I think it is a wonderful scrap quilt. Quilt it up and enjoy it - or pass it on and watch the look of pure excitement on someone elses face - because it will be there.
